Two join Lowcountry Therapy

Kristin Cushing, doctor of physical therapy, and Amanda Henzler, speech language pathologist, have joined the staff of the Lowcountry Therapy Center, which is in Plantation Business Park in Bluffton.

Cushing brings with her years of experience in pediatrics and orthopedics, including shaping helmets for babies with plagiocephaly (uneven or irregularly shaped head).

Henzler has a strong background in language and phonology and has worked in both clinics and school systems.

Lowcountry Therapy Center in Bluffton is a privately owned pediatric therapy facility offering pediatric speech, feeding, occupational and physical therapy. Specialties include augmentative-alternative communication, language-literacy and dyslexia-based disorders and sensory integration therapy. The family-based facility encourages parents to attend therapy sessions so that skills learned here are generalized quicker. Social skills groups are offered for children having a hard time relating to peers and building friendships.
